“How did you get into real estate?”

I have always had an appreciation for interior design and interest in complex problem solving.  As a first-time home-buyer years ago, I hopped on Google and researched the best buyer’s agents in San Antonio. My online search led me to an agent who I quickly ended up firing because all he cared about was making a sale and not protecting our best interests. I learned so much during the process. I knew it was something I could do, and HAD to do better, for other people.

“What makes you different from the thousands of other agents in San Antonio?”

I genuinely care about people and am empathetic to my core. I genuinely love meeting new people and forming friendships – most of my clients become close friends of mine. I am not a sales-y person and absolutely disagree with and hate sales tactics. I am committed to keeping their best interest at heart, educating them on the process, and making friends along the way! I am a helper at heart. 

Aside from my personal core beliefs and values, I have a Dual Engineering Degree from the South Dakota School of Mines and 5 years of experience in the construction industry. That knowledge and experience has been monumental for me and has been an incredible resource for my clients.

“What advice would you give to readers when looking for an agent to represent them?”

My advice would be to make sure that you have a great negotiator on your side – someone who really looks out for you, listens to you, and is intentional with your wishes.
